New Walking Shoes

Aloha Everyone,

J.J. and I purchased new walking shoes. He is a creature of habits. Once J.J. finds shoes that are comfortable, the colors and style are less important.

I found exact same shoes I am currently wearing. I wanted with similar fitting in different color. It took us about 30 minutes to make our purchases.

J.J. got another pair of New Balance very close to his previous shoes. 


Mine is rykä, promoted as made for women. Mohammad Usman DPM, a pediatric surgery specialist in Chicago, IL chose rykä as her top choice for older adult female for 2024. Primarily because as we age, we are more prone to experience elevated discomfort, pain and a range of foot-related issues. Also according to UCKA Health, they include blisters, bunions, tightness, cramps, heel pain and arthritis.


As an older adult, I certainly would like to prevent injuries, such as ankle fractures, plantar fasciitis, shin splints and potential falling.


I wore my new pair this morning and looking forward to see how effective they are in helping me with my walking.

Aloha -- Cathi
